    Missing feathers on the neck

    My hen had some feathers missing on her neck a few months ago. I noticed today that more feathers are missing. There are no signs of scratches, blood, etc. THee is no rooster either. She is very healthy otherwise. Can someone tell me why she woul be losing feathers on her neck?

    HELP!! hen is lethargic and not eating

    Well, the poor thing died. She definitely had an enlarged crop that was full of brownish liquid. I want to thank all who helped with advice. She was my son's pet and he will really miss her:(

    HELP!! hen is lethargic and not eating

    Okay, the scariest thing just happened. I picked her up to check her crop to see if it was swollen, and she through up this brownish water. Her crop (I think) was full of liquid. Now she is barely alive!!

    Help, I have 2 Rhode Island Reds ( I think) that are almost 31/2 months old. They seem big for hens, but I am not sure. Looking at other pics of hens this age, some look the same, some don't. I haven't heard any crowing as of yet. I live in San Jose, CA which is a problem if they are...
